My mom controlled our AOL account when I was about 13 and would come into my room to sign me in. So, I created an entirely fake AOL login flow in Visual Basic and had her sign me in once to capture the password. Old school phishing.

TIL that converting one’s CDC vaccination card into a French Health Pass in Paris (which is required to basically do anything like ride a train or eat at a restaurant) is a bureaucratic disaster. The alternative is to pay 25€ and get swabbed every 3 days for a QR code.
